  8. Oops! • January 15, 1990: AT&T’s long-distance network • 65 million calls, 9 hours • an upgrade to improve switch reliability • August 10, 1996: electrical grid • 25 GW, 190 plants, 7.5 million customers, 9 states • tree, automatic load-shedding • April 23, 1997: Internet • 40% Net “black-hole” • erroneous routing table pointing to 1 ISP Emergent failures:

  9. Demonstrations of emergent engineering Deep thinking about emergent engineering (don’t work!) (don’t scale!) rigor + relevance?
